Washington, May 8-(ien. Rosser
appears to be anxious to use Gen. Sheri-
dsn as q means to elect himself to CON
Lgress in s~hs-slley ss.hs Shenandoah.
He has again issued q proclamation, this
time in the columns Of the Alexandria
GAzotte. Referring to Sheridan's inter-
view he says:
Sheridan admits that he has done
nothing to atone for his barbarous, I'M
OWL zed end u~nsoldieriy acts committed
during the war, saying that 1t had never
occnred to him that be wae called on to
tdo so. His buying of supplies Of bread
and forage found in the valley might
have been regarded asa military neces-
sity to- enable him with o force of five
federals to n confederate to cope
successfully with his adversaries. But
il such had been the case could not that
have been successfully reached by re-
moving these supplies from the barns and
mills that they might have been destroy.
cd without destroying the buildings ?
Was 1t Q military necessity to destroy
the dwellings, which sheltered the de-
fenseless and feeble for the sake OF the
destruction OF q few bushels Of grain, or
4 few bundles ofstraw or hay? It is
true that I am sorry that I did not have
something like an equsi force to have
opposed him IN the valley, for il thctt
had been the case the grand old army of
the United States would to-day be in
better hands than his. lam glad that
Con, Sheridan he's determined not to
make his parade MP the valley, for such
an exhibition would be q sickenlng
sight to the brave people who live there
and who have n3proper estimate OF his
character. With me thu war ended at
1865 and is now buried in the dim past.
My estimate OF Sheridan's character is
not tempered by individual spite, and.
my letter was only written to warn my
comrades OF the coming into their midst
of that inhnman monster.
Gen. Sheridan referring to the inter
view with him on Rosssr, says:
Ihaye no fault to find with the publ
cation, but / would like you to make q
correction because I want 20 be fair to.
Rosser. He will see the mistake, and
although he might mot take the trouble
to ask o correction, / think it would be
rs well TO make my statement accurate.
So far aB the language goes yeu have

ment Of q semi, colon makes me charge
Gen. Roseer with the performance of
acts Of which he is innocent. In your

A CHAIN OF COUSINS.
Virginia Families Trace Their Kinship
Back to the Little Corporal.

WASHINGTON, July 26.-In the Washing
ton Herald the "Lounger ON the Avenue"
says:
1.-The number of cousins any Virginia,
South Carolina or Kentucky family that
was ever anybody has and claims kin with,
has always been a matter of great astonish-
ment in the North, where this charming
cult is not cherished. And these cousins,
down to the fortieth degree, are to be found
everywhere. A charming lady, whom the
writer has the pleasure Of knowing, said to
me the other day: You would scarcely be-
lieve that Virginia and South Carolina fam
lies could be related by blood ties to SO
many people as they really are in England
and France. Now here, holding up a late
Partisan journal, is the announcement of
the marriage Of Princess Eugene Murat
the great granddaughter of Marshal Murat,
better known as the commander of the cav
airy in the grande 'armee than as King Of
Naples, which he nevertheless was, to Prince
de Torelia, at an italian Inagnate. This
bride, Princess Murat, has not less than 100
Virginia and South Carolina cousins Her
grandmother was Miss Fraser, of Charles
ton, whose brother was the founder of the
great commercial house that during the war
was so famous as Fraser, Trenholm
81 Co Both the SONS of Marshal Murat
married Southern women. The eldest
Achille, came to America. His wife was
Miss Bette Willis, of Virginia whose moth
err was the distant cousin of the Dandridges
the Harrisons, the Pages, the Careys and
many others whose names are historic. His
brother, the second son--Murat's wife, you
know, was Caroline, sister of the great Ma
poleon-married Miss Fraser, as just now
told you. So her granddaughter, who
though a Princess, looks like any well-bred
and well-nurtured Virginia girl, is the great
grand niece of the first Napoleon. When
John Y. Mason, of Virginia, was our Minis
ter to France, the ladies of the
Murat household were his particular
friends l know he used to astonish
some of the old French gentlemen
about the court of the second empire by
gravey explaining that these ladies were
his cousins. The Empress Eugene heard Of
it and was much interested in the fact that
the grand daughters of The ex-King of Ma
pies, Napoleon's brother-in-law and greatest
cavalry commander, were akin to a repre-
sentative from the great republic | think
both the Darlington and Stone families Of
this city were connected with the Willises,
either by direct line or collaterally, and If /
am right, they, too, are akin TO this young
scion OF kingly and imperial lineage on one
side, and good old Virginia blood on the
other. / thought this might be interesting

tent: He was the queerest looking niger,
